I was going to say that WCW vs the World would be pretty high on the list given all the talent in that game. I wish it was just better than it was but oh well. I really enjoyed Rumble for the Sega growing up with Crush and then with Diesel on Raw. Those were great games. I would have liked to see Showdown Legends of Wrestling on here and how it would compare. That roster was sooo good even though the previous games had a better story mode with the made up territories. Thanks for the fun read.

The rumors are true... the rumors are true... Randy Savage shows back up in the WWF and he stakes his claim for the World Title right off the bat. I think he has a great style for a guy like Diesel and that title could seriously be up for grabs. Bret and Lawler have a lot of history at this point and a cage is a good way to finish it and move on to other pieces. Shawn and Jarrett of course have some things going on with one another... one has to hope that HBK doesn't hang out with any marines this time around. I like the push of the Headshrinkers as they were a good team around this time... perhaps not as great as Meng and Barb but definitely a fun pairing. I see a lot of great pieces. I see some good writing. I see some great stories beginning... this is a great way to kick off the WWF at this point.

I worked it out to get Gary Michael Capetta as the announcer and then Charles Robinson and Mark Curtis as the referees. If you guys have someone you don't plan on using in that role the magic number of three refs would be great. Just let me know who you don't need anymore.

Bobby Eaton, Bob Holly, and Mike Rotundo have signed on with the NWA

I really enjoyed this first episode. Very good use of Hogan and Flair which can be difficult given this time period. You almost lose track of the matches with the angles which makes you wonder which is more important. I'm excited to see your balance over the next couple of weeks.

Mulligan took the quick flight from Richmond to Providence the next day. HTM man does a good job here of getting heat and then the payoff with Idol is awesome. I like the way you are using Ole and Ivan here. They have value at this point and could still roll with the best of em. For major programs they may struggle but still can fit the bill in late 86. Of course you know I am high on the Twosome and how they are used and how this course of the game could have changed Rude's trajectory had he not went to the WWF and stayed NWA.

WWF Presents: Prime Time Wrestling 9/1 Hosted by Gorilla Monsoon & Jesse the Body Ventura Matches from: Providence, RI – Civic Center PT opens this week with some footage from SNME and we see Gorilla and Jesse putting it through the roof but it doesn’t last long before the Horsemen come out. We hear from Heenan who is irate and is saying that the cameras didn’t catch Windham getting out of the cage first! He was the one who landed first and he should be the champion! Flair says he has got the briefcase ready and he knows wherever Hulk Hogan is… he has got a target on his back and he is going to pay for it generously for someone to just take him out. Then we catch Arn and Tully putting over the Rockers but saying they couldn’t get the job done. They talk about Tito and say he will be in the same boat when it is all said and done… but that brings out Santana. Arn and Tully want the match right now but Tito says that he partner is still getting here… he had to take a longer flight but he will be here for the main event! We’ll see what happens when that goes down as the crowd is white hot for our opening contest…. Hacksaw Jim Duggan vs Conquistador II -A nice little showcase for Duggan who handles the Conquistador with no problem. The big clothesline is all she wrote and Duggan looks strong here. -We cut back to Gorilla and Jesse who are joined by Demolition. We hear from them as they talk about how they are going to be next in line for a match with the Horsemen after tonight… but if they have to face Tito and his partner then they wouldn’t mind that either. Duggan comes over and celebrates with them that they kicked Demolition out of the USA and don’t think that they won’t do it to anyone else who they fell like! *COMMERCIAL* -We return to PT with footage from the last couple of weeks with Paul Roma and Hercules. We see them teaming up but then breaking up after their loss to the Rockers. They join Jimmy Hart and it seems as though cooler heads have prevailed. They put over how there is a lot of Power and a lot of Glory and it really needs to be contained… they put over how they can be the top team in the WWF and it will be just a matter of time before they put all the pieces together. Jim Powers & SD Jones vs Power & Glory w/ Jimmy Hart -Power and Glory have seemed to work it out and they look good here tonight. Jesse said he spoke to the team and talked about how they have to find common ground and how important it is to work together and spread the power and glory between them. In the end we see the Power Plex and the three count. Hercules isn’t done though as he throws SD Jones out of the ring to the floor. Hercules then grabs the chain and he is choking Jim Powers out as the referees can’t stop him and Roma watches on as the crowd is booing… Roma then looks both ways and he comes out of nowhere with a dropkick on Hercules! He then comes with a couple of huge rights and lefts and then a big clothesline and Hercules goes over the top to the floor. Here comes Jimmy Hart and he gets rocked for his time! Roma helps up Powers as they have seemed to put their bad blood behind them. Jesse and Gorilla can’t believe it! *COMMERCIAL* -We return to PT with an Event Center in which Mean Gene is putting over SNME. He talks about all the winners of the matches and really hypes of Randy Savage as the NEW Intercontinental Champion. We see the Rockers put over as a team who deserves another shot at the tag titles. We hear about the Harts being in line as well. We see a special on the Great Muta who is said to be in line for a television championship shot if he continues his momentum. We finish by hearing from Hulk Hogan who has a bandage over his eye. He says that $100,000 isn’t going to be enough to put Hulkamania down and Ric Flair is going to have to dig deeper and deeper in his pockets if he can even think to find a way to stop Hulk Hogan from getting his hands on the WWF title again! *COMMERCIAL* We return to PT with The Horsemen out near the ring as Flair and Windham are nearby too. They are on the house mic putting over this match as we see Tito Santana come out and he says he found a partner who knows a lot about the Horsemen and he is going to help him win tag team gold again… BLACKJACK MULLIGAN! WWF TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP Tito and Blackjack Mulligan vs Arn & Tully © -What a surprise as Mulligan is here. Barry Windham doesn’t look happy about it one bit as Mulligan comes down and he and Tito have got ill intentions on their mind. They get into the ring and we see a fun 12-minute match with Tito and Mulligan really controlling the pace and the contest while the Horsemen are reeling. Tito has been a champion with Barry Windham in the past and now he is with Mulligan and lightning could strike twice. Windham and Flair can’t take it anymore and we see them get involved breaking up the match just as Tito and Mulligan looked like they could finish. We get an eye to eye with Windham and Mulligan that gets some fans excited as they know the story but it is foil for Anderson to chop the knee and them take control. Tully and Windham take Tito outside of the ring and start to wear him down but then the crowd explodes when we see Andre the Giant come out! Andre comes out and he grabs Tully and Windham and a double headbutt! He gets in the ring and tosses Arn Anderson over the top and then he looks at Ric Flair who is selling like crazy. He grabs Flair by the suit and my oh my we’ve got something brewing here as Andre tosses Flair over the top to the floor! The crowd is going wild! Gorilla and Jesse put it over and talk about the big MSG show coming up tonight! WWF Live 9/1 New York City, NY – Madison Square Garden Hosted by Gene Okerlund & Lord Alfred Hayes MAIN EVENT INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP CAGE MATCH Randy Savage © defeated Barry Windham SIX-MAN TAG TEAM MATCH Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, & Tito Santana defeated Flair, Arn, & Tully The Russians defeated the British Bulldogs The Hart Foundation defeated Don Muraco & Mr. Fuji TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP Curt Hennig © defeated Greg Valentine

He is with the WWF until January. I had something worked out with Gene for it. It went south with the rest of the happenings over the last month as others were involved like how the Warrior has returned to World Class full time.

Dusty Rhodes woke up this morning with an euphony if you will... he signed Brad Armstrong to come out to Los Angeles and be part of the NWA.

Hogan and Flair making teams for War Games should be a fun angle to watch unfold. There are a lot of great pieces to reveal here and I am looking forward to this version of WCW.

That's a great run-down for what is to come. You know the WWF would have to come back in a big way with Nitro and Savage would be enough in 1995 to get people interested but then build it up even more with a great match lineup.

-There are many rumors floating around right now with the resurgence of the National Wrestling Alliance. While the alliance itself has never been defunct, the idea of one major promotion holding the banner went away in the early 90s with WCW pulling away and releasing themselves the the title of NWA. These two tried once again in 1992 to get together but again, the relationship fell apart. The NWA has been relatively quiet until September 1st when it was announced that Dusty Rhodes was named interim President of the NWA and would begin operations with a new group of talent in Los Angeles of all places. -Why Los Angeles? It is said that there is a major Hollywood producer serving as the financial backer for the group and is said to have major pull when it came to contracts which explains the signing of big names like Sid, Cactus Jack, Bam Bam Bigelow, Steve Austin, and Brian Pillman. Rhodes himself has had issues with some of these men in the past but it is said that communication has been key to rebuilding the relationships. -When will it happen? Championship Wrestling from Hollywood will air this week on Friday September 8th. In order to save some money, Rhodes and the NWA has set up a television taping on Thursday night from the Regent Showcase Theater in Los Angeles. Rhodes is said to have signed Scott Hudson and a major name to do color commentary. -What does all this mean? When you break it down in means that the NWA is back and have aligned themselves with one promotion to make their name relevant again. With Rhodes doing the booking, anything could happen when it comes to the ring but it is known that Dusty can book but can he book in the 1990s, in Hollywood, without himself as the major attraction? The biggest problem is that they don't have a real television deal yet. It is said that Rhodes will be putting together a month's worth of tapings to send out as feelers to promotions to see who would be interested. MTV would be great, ESPN would be better but they can't expect to compete with WCW on TBS and TNT nor the WWF on the USA Network. With the mysterious Hollywood backer, will they ever get enough momentum to get on pay per view? Who would know about it and who would watch it? They have the names but right now their audience is limited. In order for the NWA to grow, its audience needs to expand and we will see if Rhodes can make that happen over the next couple of months or else the NWA may die once and for all.

The NWA has signed Paul Orndorff. More to come over the next 12 hours as things happen later here on the west coast...

Not a problem I had a trade with WCW that was updated on the original one. Any trades just post em here and we can edit and go from there.

Post any findings from the dirt sheets that individuals may find intriguing about the world of wrestling here....

Discuss any and all things Dawn of War here!

The Dawn of WAR The year is 1995 and there are two superpowers of professional wrestling in North America. The WWF and WCW are about to go head to head on Monday Nights when WCW decides to throw a big counterpunch and debut Monday Nitro on September the 4th. We take you to that time in which these two heavyweights are throwing body blows to wear the other out… however there is now a third fighter in the mix… ECW. Paul Heyman and Todd Gordon have really built a following with a group of wrestlers who are turning heads with powerful stories, powerful wrestling, and even more powerful risks every time they step into the ring. With this power, ECW has thrust itself into the limelight and the Big 3 has been credited with starting a boom in wrestling scene in late 1995 that will carry the sports entertainment world through the rest of the decade. The Big 3 are looking to make moves against one another and try to outdo each in this fight for wrestling supremacy… but wait right there… a 4th promotion has made an appearance. Dusty Rhodes has left WCW to consolidate the power of the National Wrestling Alliance with the backing of a major Hollywood big shot who thinks that the wrassling game is ready to take things to a new level and the National Wrestling Alliance has been reborn and headquartered in Los Angeles, California! As with most things in life… change is inevitable and with the Dawn of War, each promotion has dug stakes in to try and put together a roster and promotion to rival the other. With that there was a huge bidding war for all the major stars in North America with these four promotions gaining the contracts of some of their rivals and and resigning some of their major talent. The fall out was that a number of individuals found new homes and would be working elsewhere and due to that news we have a completely different landscape of professional wrestling in the fall of 1995. Tune in to find out the ins and outs of the WWF, WCW, ECW, and the NWA as they fight for supremacy in the world of wrestling and see who has a new home and if those new homes will be the right place for these talents to climb to higher heights than ever before!

WWF Presents: Saturday Night’s Main Event X! 8/30 Montreal, Quebec, Canada – The Forum Ric Flair: WOOO! The Bright lights of NBC are on and my oh my the Horsemen are alive and well with all the gold. Tonight… the tag titles on the line… the Horsemen will win. Tonight… the Intercontinental titles on the line… Barry Windham is going to mash the face of Randy Savage and take all that he’s got left. Then… Hogan… you come eye to eye with me… I have got the papers right now and either you sign in pen or you sign in blood but tonight… you are done in this business! Slick: Special Saturday Night’s Main Event and they have got the Russian flag ready to be raised when Nikolai Volkoff and Boris Zhukov put down that little team of Tony Atlas and Dino Bravo… tonight it won’t be O Canada… it will be O Russia my sweet Russia! Dino Bravo: That Slick likes to run his mouth as much as those Russians sing. Well we’re in my hometown of Montreal tonight and tonight there will be no Russian national anthem… it will be O Canada and the fans will sign right along with me in victory! Mr. Fuji: Tonight I have got two big matches… first the Great Muta shows the world why he is going to be big star in USA and then Demolition is going to leave Canada and close the border on the Hart Foundation! HAHA! Bret Hart: Everyone knows that the Hart Foundation are a mix of Canada and America’s finest… fans all over the world love to watch us wrestle and tonight we have to show the world why we are the best tag team in wrestling. Demolition may be big and they may be bad but they don’t have Hart… and that’s what we have plenty of! Tully Blanchard: Saturday Night’s Main Event is here and the tag titles are on the line. Rockers...we gave you the chance to back out… you could have done it with an ounce of pride but instead you will find yourselves on the short end with two bad dudes ready to put an end to you once and for all. Arn Anderson: Be aware that your next words may be your last and when it comes to tag team wrestling there is no better than the two men you’re looking at. Don’t say we didn’t warn you. Shawn Michaels: You know I am sick and tired of hearing all the warnings… the Rockers are ready to take it to the next level and Marty tonight we have the chance of a lifetime! Marty Jannetty: It is like there is a hurricane warning coming off the coast and everyone is fleeing for their lives but we are here standing strong and ready to take that gold. We are gonna rock and roll strut and stroll all over you two Horsemen and don’t say we didn’t warn you! Barry Windham: Randy Savage, I have said it before and I will say it again. I have beaten you all over this country and now we have got each other one last time and you wanted a cage… well you got it pal! Tonight… I eliminate all doubt that I am better than you and I eliminate all hope these people have that you will ever hold this title again! Randy Savage: The trials and tribulations of a man’s journey from something to nothing and nothing to something have been cataloged over the year of 1986 and tonight is the reckoning. Barry Windham… you have taking so much from me but there is so much left. Now it is time that I find that and I take it to the next level and get my title back and show the world why I am the Macho Man… OHHHH YEEEAAAAAHHHHH!!!! Vince McMahon: Welcome everyone to Saturday Night’s Main Event! Fans we are here in the Forum in Montreal, Quebec, Canada for what will be the most exciting two hours of television on a very special edition of Saturday Night’s Main Event! Jesse Ventura: It is SNME 10 McMahon and I think this may be the best of them all. We’ve got two hours coming up… we’ve got two title matches… plus the Body Shop! Vince McMahon: Fans this is going to be an amazing night of action and it is time to head to the ring right now for our first matchup! Dino Bravo & Tony Atlas vs The Russians w/ Slick -Great opening contest with each team putting on some good stuff. We see the hometown boy of Bravo really light up the crowd as he and Atlas get control. The Russians cheat to get some heat but it is only for the team of Bravo and Atlas to fight back and then we see them isolate Boris and hit him with the big powerslam by Bravo for the 1...2…..3!! Bravo and Atlas then have the Canadian Flag raised and O’ Canada is ringing throughout the arena! *COMMERCIAL* We get a fun little promo with Mean Gene and the Rockers who say that this is the chance of a lifetime. The butterflies may be as big as eagles but that is going to help them soar to victory and rock and roll, strut and stroll all over the Horsemen! YEAH! TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP The Rockers vs Arn Anderson & Tully Blanchard © w/ Bobby Heenan -Jesse is prime in this contest as he really runs the Rockers down but they come out of their shell and just put it all on the line here. They are fighting toe to toe with the Horsemen and the crowd is going wild for it. Vince thinks they are going to win it all on a couple of occasions but the Horsemen continue to find a way. This one goes about 14-minutes and by the end it appears as though the Horsemen have been run ragged. We see a flurry at the end… the Horsemen grabs Jannetty for a spike piledriver but Shawn Michaels runs and pushes Tully off the top rope and then goes up as Jannetty is holding Arn’s legs and Shawn flies off with a big dropkick and then Jannetty rolls through and makes a big cover for a 2 and 7/8s count! The crowd is going nuts as Tully gets back up but the Rockers run and hit a double dropkick sending him flying into the guardrail! Arn is slow to get up but here comes Shawn with a cross body and Arn ducks and Michaels goes flying out of the ring to the floor! Jannetty grabs Arn and tosses him to the ropes and goes for a big clothesline but Arn ducks and Jannetty hits the ropes and Arn is waiting for a NASTY SPINEBUSTER for the 1….2…...3!! The Horsemen get out of this one by the skin of their teeth and the crowd is exhausted! The fans are going nuts here. Arn and Tully hold the titles high as the Rockers have the recoup but what a match! *COMMERCIAL* SNME is back with Jesse and Vince putting over that big tag title match. They say we have so much more to come. They put over the Body Shop and the big IC title match. Now we have Tonga Kid and Muta… let’s go to the ring! The Tonga Kid vs The Great Muta w/ Mr. Fuji -We have seen the Rockers coming out party but damn if Muta doesn’t take it a step further. He is one of the hottest young stars in the sport and he shows why right here. Tonga Kid gives him all the chances in the world to shine and he takes it to another level. The back spinning elbow gets the crowd ready and then the blue myst to the face gets them lit but it is the moonsault halfway across the ring that makes them explode! Muta with the 3 count and he has got everyone buzzing here on SNME! Before commercial we see Ric Flair and Bobby Heenan talking to Jack Tunney… Flair is showing him the papers… will Hogan retire tonight? *COMMERCIAL* THE BODY SHOP w/ Hulk Hogan & Ric Flair -We jump right back into the Body Shop with Hogan and Flair as both men come out to a loud ovation. They are in the ring again together but this time Ventura is the mediator. Every time Hogan starts to get going Ventura pulls the microphone away from him. This infuriates Hogan who starts to get riled up before getting in Jesse’s face but cooler heads prevail. The short and skinny of the segment is that Flair is aging Hogan on to retire but Hogan says he has one more thing to prove and that is to beat Ric Flair for the World Title! Flair he will never get the chance and Hogan says he will put his career on the line to do it. This is where Jesse intervenes again but Flair continues to agg him on. Hogan is starting to get flustered with both guys giving him the business and then he grabs Jesse again but Flair just wollops him with the World title! Flair then grabs the microphone…. He picks up Hogan’s head and says $100,000 bounty to put Hulk Hogan out of this business…. Flair will pay the bounty and Hogan will never… ever… get a chance at this title again! *COMMERCIAL* SNME is back and we see the Demolition in the back with Fuji. He puts over Muta and says that tonight Demolition will do the same and they will be the ones who give the Harts a heart attack and demolish them in front of everyone! LOSER CAN’T WRESTLE IN THE US FOR 6 MONTHS! The Hart Foundation vs Demolition w/ Mr. Fuji -The Harts with a bigger ovation than Bravo come out to a heroes welcome here in Montreal. They go 15-minutes with Demolition in one of the hardest hitting tag team matches we’ve seen in a long time. These guys just beat the living hell out of one another and the fans are screaming for the Harts to come back. We see Demolition just destroy Bret when they toss him off the apron into the guardrail sternum first. They then go to work on the Anvil and break him down something awful before trying to finish but the Anvil fights back with some big rights and lefts. Smash runs at him but he hoists him over his back to the floor! Axe starts to hammer down on the Anvil but they go blow for blow before getting near the ropes and the Anvil goes down and grabs Ax’s legs before Bret Hart comes over the ropes with a roll up and the Anvil jumps on top and they cover for the 3-count! The Harts have won it and the crowd is going absolutely wild! The Harts have won the contest and salute to the fans. Demolition are escorted back by officials but they can’t go to the USA so they might have to find work elsewhere! We then see Randy Savage getting ready for the big cage match as he has taped up his hands. We see him leave the dressing room with Elizabeth staying put… he says she doesn’t need to be out there to see what happens tonight! *COMMERCIAL* SNME is back with Jesse and Vince putting over this cage match in a big way. They talk about how this is Savage’s last shot. This is Windham true time to shine and put Savage away forever. Everything comes to head tonight… this has been building for over 6 months with Wars fought all over the country… let’s head to the CAGE! MAIN EVENT INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP CAGE MATCH Randy Savage w/ Elizabeth vs Barry Windham © w/ Bobby Heenan -This all started with Windham took the King of the Ring from Savage with the help of Bobby Heenan. They took it to WrestleMania and Windham won again. Savage got his revenge at the Showdown at Shea but here… the cage… the title… the last chance...all the fans are excited as both men make grand entrances. This one goes 17-minutes and has some fun psychology with Windham constantly trying to escape and Savage clawing and scratching to keep control. We se some blood early on from Windham as Savage is rabid in throwing him into the cage. The tide turns when both men are at the top of the cage and it looks like Windham smashes Savage’s head on a screw or cable or something and Savage falls down with a nasty cut above his eye. With both men juiced we go to commercial as Jesse and Vince are putting this over like crazy. We return and it is Windham who has control and he is hammering away at Savage as the blood pours from his eye but Savage makes a comeback and he just hammers away at Windham. Elizabeth is shown running to the ring in tears. Savage throws Windham from pillar to post and coast to coast inside the cage before he catches Heenan trying to corner Liz and that gives Windham his chance to knee him in the back and Savage nails the steel. Heenan yells at Windham to finish him and Windham puts Savage on his shoulder and takes him to the corner… he looks for the superplex but then he hoists him up higher and he’s got him on the top of the cage but he is taking too long. Savage with a couple of headbutts and then and huge elbow and Windham goes flying into the middle of the ring. Savage climbs to the TOP OF THE CAGE…. - HE COMES CRASHING DOWN THE ELBOW! The crowd explodes! Savage gets up and falls back into the cage. He ascends the steel and then we see Heenan push the referee out of the way and he starts to pull Windham but Savage goes down the cage. Savage drops down as Heenan pulls Windham out but Savage lands first and he is the NEW Intercontinental Champion! The crowd is going wild as Savage and Liz hug and he holds the title high in the air. What a moment. What a SNME. Fans we’ll see you for Prime Time on Monday Night!

At this point no. But that's why we wait if needed. If not then we can go ahead depending on what others want to do. There's five of us so it can be a simple question of wait or go ahead sooner than later. We could draft next week if needed or wait till the end of the month of September.

I think we looked at Miz taking over world class Sept 1st. Do we want to wait for others to join to take over uwf, Portland, or pr?

Big time NWA title match for Kerry with a fun story to boot. I love his reign right now as he has been so much more successful than real life. Fun six-man with a lot on the line... looking forward to those payoffs. I am interested in the Iron Sheik here... he has talent and name value and could be a guy who kind of builds up the next couple of months. Loving MACW right now. Keep doing work.

I really liked the Loser Can't challenge match... very fun little idea to play with. Garvin is the top dog around here and it will be fun to see who can jump up to his level and make him earn that title.

We are now going to utilize one thread for all roster moves, including trades, hiring, and releasing talent.

Okay a couple of things here.... first, So it looks like we will have @awesomemiz take over the World Class roster on September 1st as long as that's cool with @Crazymax Jack Then, the Portland roster will be joined together with with the UWF roster for a draft. Active immediatly; Ivan Koloff & Ole Anderson are going to MACW The for rest of the UWF roster, I have broken up the jobber packs and here's the list. UWF Roster Action Jackson Atlantis Baby Doll - Manager Black Bart Bob Armstrong Bobby Eaton Brad Armstrong Brian Adams Buddy Landel Butch Reed Dennis Condrey Dick Murdoch Dick Slater - Going to AWA on November 1st (Replaced by AWA talent) Doug Vines Ernie Ladd -Manager Fidel Sierra Grizzly Boone Iceman King Parsons Jack Brisco - Announcer/Manager Jack Kruger Jeff Jarrett Jeff Sword Jerry Bryant Jerry Lawler Jim Cornette - Manager Junkyard Dog Kendall Windham King Kong Bundy Konga (Barbarian) Lex Luger Lou Winston Magnum TA Mike Rotundo Nikita Koloff - Going to AWA January 1st (Replaced by AWA talent) Ricky Morton Robert Gibson Rocky Iaukea Ron Bass Ron Fuller Ron Simmons Ron Wright - Manager Samu Scott Doring Sean Royal Skandar Akbar - Manager Stan Lane Steve Kiern Steve Williams Terry Taylor The Warlord Tim Brooks Tommy Rich Wahoo McDaniel Now the only little thing about this is that Dick Slater and Nikita Koloff will be involved in the draft, however, if they are drafted they will be swapped out with AWA on the given dates. We don't want to spoil anything for AWA so if they get drafted then you can inquire as to who the backside of the draft pick will be. I can assure you, without doubt that the individuals for Slater and Nikita are WELL worth it. Dick Slater - Going to AWA on November 1st (Replaced by AWA talent) Nikita Koloff - Going to AWA January 1st (Replaced by AWA talent) Additionally, Tommy Rich was on loan to MACW but with the draft he has decided to try and work things out with whomever picks up Rich to complete dates as part of the Ole and Ivan deal which have gone directly to MACW. Now with regards to the draft... say we get going and Rain has a chance to draft Nikita... that would nullify the trade and he would get Nikita and keep the backside of the deal. Same would be for Dick Slater. Same would go if Spaldoni drafted Rich, he would just get full right to him. Does that sound okay to everyone? I know it is kind of hush hush who is on the backsides of the Slater and Nikita deal but we don't want to spoil anything for AWA while also keeping this thing going. Let me know what everyone thinks and we can figure out exact dates and such to when to get going and have everything move forward.
